( round 8 ) I think some of these fights are a bit twisted, but I don't think traditional beetle fighting (common in many asian countries) is really that bad, cause they really only push each other around and they're designed to fight like that, in order to win a mate. | ||

Yup, usually they dont hurt each other. Those species of beetle dont eat others bugs and they looks like small versions of deer or rhino. | ||

It's interesting that the beetles are so difficult to beat. None of the bugs can pierce their armor, which is why they're not very susceptible to poison. The scorpion tries, but the only unprotected spot is between the joints, and its stinger is too big to fit. | ||
